View Full Version : fairing etc screws
hi all

if you could help me out with some replacements or point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
the screws i need are.
the 2off screws that hold the small triangular panels under the seat.
the 2off screws that hold the fuel tank on.
and some of the screws that hold on the lower fairing:rolleyes:

idealy i'm looking to replace the screws with originals that have the shoulder on the shank to protect the plastics when tightened.
i've already got loads of standard screws like in the ebay list.

I know the type you need but cannot find them in stainless steel. You can use the threaded stainless ones and use a spacer tube in the rubber grommet. This is how its done on my fairing but I dont know who stocks them. need some more myself so let me know if you find either the shouldered bolt (in stainless) or the spacer tubes.

Glad it was of some help buddy. Have you got a nut and bolt maker or machine shop locally? i ask because you could always take your oem fastners to them and get ss copies made.

probably shouldn't say this, but i can't be arsed messing about like that:rolleyes: and i don't know any bolt makers near me:(
i'm just sick of trying to angle an allenkey in the hole to get the best grip.
i know that eventually i'll come to remove it with an urgent job to be done and i won't be able to get the bloody thing off:)
i've ordered them now anyway and apparently they are winging there way to me as i type:D
cheers for your help though

Well Jay tbh mine are the same and i keep meaning to get them sorted but also cba and as you say i will also come unstuck one day when i need them off :D Let us no if what you ordered are any good.
finally got round to ordeering the screws for my bike from Robertsons Foundry.
i ordered the two for the little plastic covers under the seat (one for each side).
i ordered them on Sunday night a couple of weeks ago and they arrived on Tuesday, nicely packaged with a free keyring:D
they are a little pricy for 2 bolts, but they fitted perfectly.
and now i don't need to worry about the inevitable problem of not being able to get the bloody things off during a crisis:rolleyes:
i think they are made from the same crappy steel as the originals but i will be extra carefull this time to make sure i don't round off the heads:rolleyes:
i'd definately recoment robertsons foundry for parts etc, they're not the cheapest, but the delivery was swift and at least you know exactly what you are going to get:D
